A rather bitter picture of a man who gives everything for gold until he has absolutely nothing else and dies. The author, G.V. May, has written a sermon not a work of art. He has not shown true imagination in his character drawing, hasn't convinced us that the man is human like ourselves and gets no gripping hold of our imaginations. Thomas Santschi plays the votary of the false god and is ably assisted by Bessie Eyton and the two little Wades, Lillian and Frankie. Camille Astor and Lillian Hayward have short roles as have Messrs H. Rawlinson, E. James. W. Oakman and D. Simpson. Collin Campbell produced it. Photographically the picture is fine; it makes a fair offering. - The Moving Picture World, December 28, 1912
